Cultural Writing. Reference. This PERSIAN-ENGLISH ENGLISH-PERSIAN LEARNER'S DICTIONARY speaks to the increasing popularity of the study of Persian (also known as Farsi, Tajiki or Dari) in the English-speaking world. This wonderfully assembled cohesive reference book fills needs of English speakers who are learning Persian, Persian speakers who wish to learn English, as well as children of Iranians, Afghans and Tajiks outside their homeland who wish to learn their mother language. The dictionary is bi-directional, offers both transliteration as well as Persian script, details the Persian alphabet, and is alphabetical. Also, the 18,000 entries include synonyms in various contexts allowing the student to easily choose the correct meaning.
